Does your website grab attention? Do you have the proper know how and tools to make your website a cut above everyone else?
Today everyone is using ecommerce. It is a cut throat business. Every day there are more and more sites clambering to optimize their rankings in the search engines. If you don’t know how to keep up, you are going to get trampled in the rush and just be one more website struggling to get noticed.
Search engines are the way websites get noticed on the internet. The more traffic you can drive to your site, the better it will show up on the search pages. You get a higher probability of clicks when you are ranking within the top ten on the page. The more traffic for your site, the more money you rake in.
That’s where SEO (search engine optimization) comes in. With properly functioning SEO you will reap the benefit of generating high traffic volume. Lets say you get 100 hits or more a day. If you can convert only 10% of those hits into sales, depending on the prices you are charging and what you are selling, you will be well on your way to making money online.
SEO does require a lot of work to be effective. You may have to reword parts of your website to capture effective keyword phrases without making it too commercial. Your site should use the keywords to keep your site’s content applicable and conducive to SEO but also keeping it light and informative.
The more you collaborate with other sites exchanging links and pages, also helps your SEO. The more outbound and inbound links your site has, helps improve search engines ranking.
If you don’t have the budget to hire a professional, use the internet as your tool to search for help. Search for tips, guidelines and methods. Read as much as you can and implement as many ideas as you can. This will require time and effort on your part but will eventually lead to more hits on your site and more money in your pocket.
If you have a budget, you can find many sites that will help you achieve quicker SEO. Also hiring a professional content writer can boost your page ranking.
Do split tests using Google Analytics. See which squeeze page or landing page reaps the most hits for you.
Don’t be afraid to give different things a try. Almost any steps you take on your own will result in driving better traffic and more business to your site.
